Automatic launch of Adobe Photoshop Album Starter

When I put a jump drive into my USB port Adobe Photo Shop Album Starter Edition 3.2  launches.  It won't go away. I can't see what is on my jump drive.  I can only see pictures. 
It's got to be something on my computer because the jump drives I've tried work perfectly on other computers.  I tried a blank drive and it did the same thing.  This has started recently.
Can anyone help?

From a little digging, I found a thread where I see this was an issue till 3.2 update was launched. Please follow these steps to resolve the issue-
You can kill the automatic downloader [and obtain pictures manually] thus:
In Windows Explorer, go to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Album Starter Edition\3.0\Apps and reaname the file apdproxy.exe to something else [like "apdproxy-save.exe"].
Then reboot.
For more info, please see http://forums.adobe.com/thread/361564.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

  • LOST FAMILY PHOTO'S AUTOMATICALLY DOWNLOADED TO Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2.

    My photos were automatically downloaded to the above mentioned sight and although I can see the photo's stored a registration message pops up and I am not able to access them, the photo's were also automatically deleted from my camera. I am aware that Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2 is no longer available and have tried to download an updated trial version but this appears to taking forever and a virus message keeps appearing. If this Photoshop is unavailable why was it still available for my photo's to disappear into?

    There is a forum dedicated to Photoshop Album Starter.

    I have Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Eddition 3.2. It won't open or launch! It just sits there trying to open. How do I get it to open/launch? Do I get a new version of the software that is compatible to be able to import all my years accumulation of images and files? What to do?

    Photoshop Album Starter Edition has been withdrawn almost five years ago.  It is no longer supported, and can not be reinstalled.
    You should switch to a different product.

  • Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition  vs.  Picasa?

    Hi everyone..
    I have just installed Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0 and I'm wondering about a few things. Bear with me here...
    1. I use Piccasa strictly as a picture-viewer program. I'm not 100% happy with it, could anybody pursuade me and my curious friend, why I should switch to Album Starter? I would like that.
    2. What I DO like about Piccasa is that it just view my pictures and do not copy them into a special piccasa-format. I have several file-formats in my picture-folder and I would like Album Starter to view all of them without changing the original location of the file, nor copy it, taking up a lot of disk-space.
    3. Another thing I like about Picasa is that if I have changed, added or removed a picture in the original file-location it updates those changes when I launch the program.
    4. I understand that there are several ways to view your photos. But can you also view and navigate your pictures through folders while you are in Album Starter? Because thats one thing I hate about Picasa, it just place all my folders on the side of the page, meaning it takes them out of their original folder and destroys the dept-folder-system I have made.
    5. Does Album Starter have a nice search function?
    If anyone could take the time to answer these very bad formulated questions, I would be very grateful.
    - C.C.

    1) PSA SE has better organizing tools [tags/collections] than Picassa. There is also a clear growth path if you want something more powerful [Photoshop Elements Organizer is compatible].
    2) With PSA SE you keep your image files anywhere you want.
    3) PSA SE has limitations in this area. You are encouraged to move files about from within the program.
    4) I'm not sure that you'd prefer PSA SE in this respect. You are really encouraged not to think in terms of folders, as that is not a way to organize a large collection of images [say much more than 100].
    5) It has various ways to search - what are you after? Using tagging intelligently means you very rarely need to search. [I have use this technology for 3 years and only used Search a handful of time.]

    It is a common misconception that Starter Edition 'stores', or copies, your files into it. But the program does not move or copy files at all, rather it scans your system's My Pictures directory, and generates miniature versions of your pictures (called thumbnails) so that you can browse a 'flat' list of thumbnails of your photos, overcoming the inconvenience of having to go into separate folders in Windows Explorer to have to find files.The thumbnails, as well as any tags, and Albums that you create in Starter Edition are all stored in the Photoshop Album catalog file, separate from your pictures, and your pictures remain where you originally copied them to your computer.
    If you use Photoshop Album to subsequently download files from a digital camera or scanner, the default location where the program will create those files would be in the My Pictures>Digital Camera Photos folder. But if you do NOT use Photoshop Album Starter edition to download files from your camera, then you will find that folder empty.
    The thumbnails in the Starter Edition catalog will exist, even if you decide to move or delete the original photos that were added to the program. This will cause files in the Photoshop Album catalog to become 'disconnected' from the original photos. To reconnect the files, you can use the File>Reconnect Missing files command to see if the program can locate the original files in a new location, and once again re-link the catalog thumbnails to the files they once referenced.
    Since Photoshop Album has been discontinued, I recommend that folks find an alternative solution. One alternative that will preserve most of what you've created in Starter Edition is the Photoshop Elements 8 trial. Install that, and it will automatically convert the Photoshop Album catalog to a current format, and the program will not time out, as Starter Edition did. If you want to purchase more Editing power, you can also choose to purchase the full program, but it's not required.
    If you are like many who have come to this forum wondering how you can get to your photos, now that the program has become locked or expired, don't worry; your photos have never been moved by Photoshop Album; they remain wherever you intially put them, on your hard drive. To get to them, you can navigate your file system using Windows Explorer. They are typically in your My Documents>My Pictures folder. Here is a handy How-To that you could refer to to find photos on your system, as well as some other tips for how you can use folders to keep your photos organized: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/setup/maintain/filemgmt.mspx
    Hope those tips help!

  • Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2 error c0000005

    When I try to get pictures from my iphone via Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2, it has to close with error C0000005.
    I'm disappointed that I have to use 3rd party software to get photos on and off my iphone. I thought Apple made products that were easy to use. Just seems like the same crap from a different manufacturer (can you tell I'm frustrated?). Not to mention all the limitations with the iphone if you actually want to use it for business ....

    You don't need to use 3rd party software - iPhoto will do it automatically once you set it up.
    Connected your iPhone to your computer. iTunes then opens up. Select your iPhone under Devices, in the left column. Then click the Photos tab in the main window. Check the box that says, "Sync photos from:" Then, iPhoto will open every time you sync. You'll have the option to import the Photos from your phone and you'll be able to chose if the original stays on your phone or is deleted.

  • Question re adobe photoshop album starter edition 3.0

    hi
    I still work with the old fashioned adobe photoshop album starter edition 3.0. I have had a virgin.net e-mail address for years but have recently changed to hotmail.co.uk.
    However when I try and share a photograph from my adobe album it automatically reverts to outlook express. I can't send from there as my hotmail account isnt configured to outlook express therefore how do I send photos using my hotmail account?
    Can anyone help please, I am not technically minded
    thanks

    There seem to be two questions here:
    1) is it possible to configure Photoshop Album Starter Edition to send photos via Hotmail? 
    2) alternatively, how can you configure Outlook Express to manage your Hotmail account?
    Since this forum is the Photoshop forum and has nothing to do with Photoshop Album Starter Edition, and since both Photoshop Album Starter Edition and Outlook Express are discontinued programs, you will have to be very lucky to find someone who can help you here.
    For 1) you might try asking in the Photoshop Album Starter Edition forum http://forums.adobe.com/community/ps_album_starter?view=discussions.  There isn't much traffic there, but you may be lucky.
    For 2) you might try searching the Internet for instructions on how to use Outlook Express with Hotmail.  I did a simple search on "Outlook Express Hotmail" and found lots of information.
    Good luck!

  • I use Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2 . Should I do anything?

    I use Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2 . Should I do anything?

    The migration is from Photoshop.com sharing and storage to Revel only.  If you have jpg files in Photoshop.com and you did not opt out, then files migrate to Revel automatically. Files on your computer are not touched.
    Just so you know, the support for Adobe Starter Edition ended in 2009.  Here is a link to related questions and answers.

  • How to transfer metadata (tags etc) from Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2 to A P Elements 8

    I have just bought the Adobe Elements 8. I was told that this product was the upgrade product from the trial version of Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.2. Can't find a clear solution in this forum of how to transfer the metadata to the Adobe Elements 8  and continue the indexing with the latest product. Hopefully somebody can help.
    Bjorn

    If you still have your 3.2 psa catalog in your "My Catalogs" folder, try
    downloading PSE5  from here:
    http://www.johnrellis.com/photoshop_elements_5.0_trial_version.exe.
    PSE5 should be able to find your catalog and you can convert it into PSE5.
    If that doesn't work, it may be because you weren't able to run  "reconnect
    all missing files" in PSA3.2 before attempting the conversion.   If all your
    photos were still connected, this should work.  Then you can open PSE8 and
    convert PSE5 into PSE8.  Do a "reconnect all missing files" in PSE5 before
    you do the conversion.  Even though all my files were connected when I
    converted PSA2 into PSE5, PSE5 had about 30 unconnected photos.
    Good luck!

  • Adobe Photoshop Album Starter 3.2  gives error when plugging in iPhone 3G

    So, I plug my iPhone iunto my laptop... iTunes opens... Adobe Photoshop Album Starter 3.2 starts up to backup/transfer photos... and then I get:
    Fatal Error
    Adobe Photoshop Album Starter 3.2 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
    Error code: c0000005

    Tried dowbloading app again... didn't help.
    HELP!  Thanks

    I have a similar problem with my new iphone 4, but I never had the problem with my previous iphone 3g.
    Your post seems promising. However, you say ''right click on the APD icon in the system tray (it must be resembling a small camera) and select disable''. Unfortunatlely I don't know where to find '' the system tray''. Control Panel has a system folder but I can't find any access to an icon resembling a camera. Also, I am used to using Adobe Photoshop downloader. Since it worked with my previous iphone, can't it be made to work with the iphone 4?

  • Version of Adobe Photoshop Album Starter 3.0?

    How do I access photos just downloaded in error to an EXPIRED edition of Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Version 3.0?

    What you see is a low resolution remnant of the original files, not the files themselves. When a photo is 'imported' into the program, a small thumbnail is drawn, and cached to the database; if the original source files were moved or deleted, then all that remains are the low resolution remnants, not the files themselves.
    There have been a few that have figured out how to open the Starter Edition database, and strip out the low resolution thumbnails, but I could not offer advice on how to do that. I would just take screen shots and save those as separate files, but they would be of very low quality.

  • Adobe photoshop album starter 3.0 pictures

    I am downloading a bunch of pictures off of numerous cards. When I put in one of the cards all the pictures I wanted to download popped into my Adobe Photoshop Album Starter 3.0 program. I minimized it and opened up snapfish.com and opened up some different pictures. Then disaster ... I deleted the entire card without getting my 200 pictures off of the card...HOWEVER, when I pulled up the minimized Adobe Photoshop Album starter, I see the pictures are on there. I'm at the point where it basically says I need to click "get photos". Is there a chance that my wedding photos are still on my hard drive somewhere. I am SOOOO NOT a technical person. Please HELP! Thanks in advance!

    Hi Lucille,
    Let's go slow and breathe... :)
    First, you say that you can see the images in PSA. This is a good sign.
    It likely means that the images were successfully transferred.
    What I would like you to do is right click on one of the images you are
    concerned about and click on very bottom where is says "Show Properties".
    Now, this will bring up a little window. Look at the bottom and see if
    it shows you little folder and a "pathway" something like c:\...\My
    Pictures\...
    If you see something like that, press the folder icon itself and look in
    this area for the file that you think you have lost.
    Let's start with that.
    Cheers
